Re: RVR search for boaters
I capsized my canoe there one day and had my PFD on. I bought a good paddling model PDF and it worked perfectly. It wasn't a fun experience. I had an electric motor on it and it lost power and I was padlling back in a gust of wind got me sideways that allowed some water in that just unbalanced the canoe to the point it just went over. I was helped by a RVTA member who came right to my aid and pulled me up into to his boat and helped me right my canoe and bail it out and tow back to the main launch. Lost some stuff but thats fine with me. Water was pretty cold as it was the end of May. I sold the canoe. Have fished\camped at RV for close to 30 years and I've seen some bad conditions. PFD is your friend. I thought that canoes and kayaks need to wear a drysuit, or wetsuit, from 15-Nov to 15-May ?
